let's talk God

The Search For Love

“Spouse House” is a show on TLC about a bunch of men and women in their 20s/30s who get thrown into a house and talk to each other and interact. Every week the men are asked if they want to propose to the woman they are “pursuing”. I watched it for a couple minutes as background noise while I was making my breakfast this morning. These people are desperate for love. Honestly, aren’t we all? While I was thinking about this show, I knew the advice I’d give them (or anyone) about love. When you think you’re in love, or you’ve found someone amazing, RUN TO GOD. You should acknowledge and appreciate the beauty of who they are, but turn to Christ. HE is our model for love: look at the cross. HE is the reason we find the person we want to spend our lives with: look at your blessings. And HE is who we must love first: think of your future spouse. When we turn to God, we better ourselves. We become happier because we are closer to the perfect model of devotion. So when you’re searching for love, search for Jesus. He’ll guide you to them.
